Cordelia Chase is a fictional character in the television shows, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. Cordelia is played by Charisma Carpenter.
Cordelia was originally introduced as a cheerleader and popular student at Sunnydale High, who naturally looked down on Buffy Summers and her low-on-the-totem-pole friends Willow Rosenberg and Xander Harris. But Cordelia turns to Buffy when she is in danger: "I know you're very strong, and you've got all those weapons... I was kind of hoping you were in a gang." Soon Cordelia learns Buffy's true calling and becomes a member of the Scooby Gang, with a corresponding fall in her social status.
In the second season, Cordelia falls briefly in love with Xander, terminating the relationship in the third season when she finds him kissing Willow. Shortly after, Xander discovers that Cordelia's family has lost all their money because "Daddy made a little mistake on his taxes - for the last twelve years." Cordelia was a regular character on Buffy for the first three seasons.
Unable to go to college after graduation, Cordelia moves to Los Angeles to pursue her dream of becoming an actress. Instead, she runs into a producer who is also a vampire, is rescued by Angel, and becomes a regular on the spinoff series, Angel. Angel, Cordelia, and the half- demon Doyle unite to form Angel Investigations , dedicated to helping people in trouble who are usually located by visions sent to Doyle by the mysterious and semi- divineThe concept of the divine is a key ingredient in all religious faiths, and it is frequently used to refer to the monotheistic God that is part of most of the world's great religions as well as the various deities that are part of polytheistic religions su Powers That BeThe Powers That Be is a euphemism for the enigmatic and ancient forces that assist the side of good in the WB television series Angel.

Cordelia's budding romance with Doyle is ended by Doyle's death, but Doyle leaves her his visions as a dangerous gift.
The visions give Cordelia a powerful ability to help others, but are intended only for demons, since humans are too weak to face them. Increasingly, Cordelia finds herself suffering physical damage from the visions which she struggles to hide from her friends. Ultimately, Cordelia refuses an offer from the Powers That Be to trade the visions and her life fighting evil for her original goal of being a successful actress, choosing instead to become herself part demon. As a demon, Cordelia can receive the visions uninjured, but what other consequences the change will have for her remain to be seen.
In the fourth season of Angel, Cordelia returned to EarthEarth also known as the Earth or Terra is the planet on which we live, the third planet outward from the Sun.

Much of this arc was due to Charisma Carpenter's actual pregnancy.

Cordelia made a triumphant return in the season five episode " You're Welcome" where she helped Angel get back on track. Alas, it was simply some form of Astral Projection facilitated by the Powers that Be, who owed her a favor. After finally kissing Angel, it is realized that Cordelia never *actually* woke up, and that she is now dead. Later in the season, we learn that Cordelia did much more than this, giving Angel one of her visions that pointed him in the direction of the real players in the upcoming apocalypse.
